Various Artists w/ Beth and Sofia: 13th December, 2024

Today on Various Artists!

Sofia had a kōrero with Senior Curator of Global Contemporary Art at Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, Natasha Conland, about the gallery’s newest exhibition - Olafur Eliasson: Your curious journey.

Eliasson is an Icelandic–Danish world renowned artist known for sculptured and large-scaled installation art employing elemental materials such as light, water and air temperature to enhance the viewer’s experience, often speaking to a broader reflection of the history of human interaction with the environment and its impact, raising awareness about the climate crisis and the climate’s impacted state.

Beth had a kōrero with artist Chloe Summerhayes about her exhibition of recent paintings at Suite Gallery. Summerhayes is a visual artist who often explores themes of the subconscious in her work.

Sofia had a kōrero with fine art dealer and gallerist Charles Ninow about his new gallery which opened on Karangahape Road last week, and the current exhibition it’s showing by Ralph Paine - Leaves from a Pillow Book.

And for Stage Direction this week, Alice Canton joined us in the studio to give us her 2024 theatre round up of the year.

Whakarongi mai!
